5 THE COURT: Good morning.

6 THE JURY: (In unison) Good morning.

7 THE COURT: Mr. Mesereau.

8 MR. MESEREAU: Thank you, Your Honor.

9 Should I check this, double-check this.

10 Hello.

11 THE JURY: Hello.

12 MR. MESEREAU: All right.

13

14 CROSS-EXAMINATION (Continued)

15 Q. Miss Arvizo, you testified last week that

16 you recall a trip from Neverland with Michael

17 Jackson to a store named Toys R Us; do you remember

18 that.

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. And you testified that Mr. Jackson took you

21 and your brothers and some fans to Toys R Us, right.

22 A. Yes.

23 Q. Do you know approximately when that was.

24 A. I don’t remember when.

25 Q. And you did say that on the way Mr. Jackson

26 saw some fans and picked them up, and you all went

27 to Toys R Us together, right.

28 A. Yes. 964






1 Q. And Mr. Jackson paid for toys for everybody,

2 correct.

3 A. Yes.

4 Q. Do you recall anybody ever complaining that

5 they were being falsely imprisoned at Toys R Us.

6 A. No.

7 Q. Do you recall anybody complaining that they

8 were there against their will, at Toys R Us.

9 A. No.

10 Q. Now, do you know what a sworn deposition is

11 in a civil case.

12 A. Kind of. Not really.

13 Q. Has anyone ever told you that a sworn

14 deposition is a procedure in a civil case where

15 somebody sits down and answers questions under oath.

16 A. Yes.

17 Q. And who told you that.

18 A. Well, I was sitting in the one that Gavin

19 took during the J.C. Penney’s case.

20 Q. And you were also sitting in the one that

21 Star gave in the J.C. Penney case, correct.

22 A. I don’t remember that. I was just sitting

23 with Gavin.

24 Q. Well, didn’t you tell the jury last week

25 that you know nothing about the J.C. Penney case.

26 A. I just remembered right now when you said

27 “deposition.”

28 Q. So you sat there in Gavin’s deposition in 965







1 the J.C. Penney case, correct.

2 A. Because he wanted me to be next to him, and

3 I held his hand.

4 Q. And your mother was there too, correct.

5 A. I don’t remember her sitting there.

6 Q. You also sat in Star’s deposition, true.

7 A. I don’t remember sitting in Star’s.

8 Q. Would it refresh your recollection if I just

9 show you the page of the deposition transcript that

10 lists you as attending.

11 A. (Nods head up and down.)

12 Q. Could I show it to you.

13 A. That’s fine. I just didn’t remember. All I

14 remember is really sitting with Gavin.

15 Q. Okay.

16 MR. MESEREAU: May I approach, Your Honor.

17 THE COURT: Yes.

18 THE WITNESS: Okay.

19 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Have you had a chance to

20 look at that page.

21 A. No, that was the first time.

22 Q. Well, does it refresh your recollection that

23 you were present for Star’s deposition as well.

24 A. All I remember is the taping of Gavin’s.

25 I don’t remember Star’s.

26 Q. Okay. What -- my point is this: When you

27 told the jury last week you didn’t know anything

28 about the J.C. Penney case, that wasn’t correct, 966






1 right.

2 A. Well, when you said “deposition,” it

3 refreshed my memory. That was a long time ago. I

4 was, like, 11.

5 Q. Okay. Now, you also told the jury last week

6 you have no knowledge of Gavin having disciplinary

7 problems at school before he ever met Mr. Jackson,

8 right.

9 A. I know he talks a lot, yes.

10 Q. Well, that’s what you said, the only problem

11 you were aware of is that he was talkative, correct.

12 A. Yes.

13 Q. You also said to -- you were asked by me,

14 “To your knowledge, was he ever asked to leave

15 school,” and you said you don’t know, right.

16 A. I don’t -- no, I don’t remember.

17 Q. Well, you sat there in Gavin’s deposition in

18 the J.C. Penney case where he admitted that he got

19 in lots of fights and got thrown out of school,

20 right. You were sitting right there, right.

21 A. He’s never been thrown out of school.

22 Q. You heard him say it under oath, didn’t you.

23 A. I don’t remember. It was a long time ago.

24 All I remember, I was in my grandmother’s house, and

25 I was holding his hand, and they were taping the

26 deposition. That’s all I remember.

27 Q. Do you remember at the deposition Gavin was

28 asked, “Have you ever had problems at school where 967






1 you got into a lot of fights.” And he said, “Yes”.

2 MR. SNEDDON: I’m going to object as asked

3 and answered.

4 THE COURT: Sustained.

5 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Do you remember Gavin

6 saying he was thrown out of school for fighting.

7 MR. SNEDDON: Object; asked and answered.

8 THE COURT: Sustained.

9 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Are you telling the jury

10 you never heard Gavin ever make a statement like

11 that at any time.

12 MR. SNEDDON: Your Honor, I’m going to

13 object as asked and answered, and ask the Court to

14 admonish counsel. He knows better than this.

15 MR. MESEREAU: I object, Your Honor, to the

16 colloquy.

17 MR. SNEDDON: I have a right to make a

18 record. And I -- I’m asking the Court -- this is

19 the third objection in a row that’s been asked and

20 answered.

21 THE COURT: Sustained. You may sit down.

22 MR. SNEDDON: Thank you.

23 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Are you telling the jury

24 today, under oath, that you have no knowledge of

25 Gavin ever being asked to leave school before he met

26 Mr. Jackson.

27 MR. SNEDDON: Object as asked and answered.

28 THE COURT: Overruled. 968






1 THE WITNESS: All I know is that he was very

2 talkative. I don’t remember. I’m not involved in

3 that.

4 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: I’m sorry, excuse me. I

5 interrupted.

6 A. I’m not involved in that. My mom is.

7 Q. Have you ever discussed with Gavin his being

8 thrown out of school for fighting.

9 A. All I know is he would get in trouble, so I

10 would tell him, “Just be quiet, Gavin. You don’t

11 need to talk back.” That’s all I remember.

12 Q. Have you ever discussed with Gavin his

13 problems with fights in school before he met Mr.

14 Jackson.

15 MR. SNEDDON: I’m going to object as asked

16 and answered.

17 THE COURT: Overruled.

18 THE WITNESS: I don’t know. I don’t

19 remember.

20 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Okay. Do you remember,

21 I asked you last week if you had ever discussed the

22 J.C. Penney case with Gavin or your mom. Remember,

23 I asked you that question.

24 A. Yes.

25 Q. You said you had not discussed it with

26 either of them, right.

27 A. Yes.

28 Q. How could that be, if you attended those 969







1 depositions.

2 A. I’m not talking to them about it.

3 Q. Before.

4 A. No. I haven’t talked to them about it at

5 all. I’m just sitting there. I don’t know anything

6 about the case. I was just sitting there to comfort

7 my brother. He wanted me to be with him. I’m not

8 even paying attention to what he’s saying. I’m just

9 paying attention to how he’s looking. And that was

10 during his chemo.

11 Q. So you had never discussed the J.C. Penney

12 case with him before you attended his deposition.

13 A. No.

14 Q. And you never discussed the J.C. Penney case

15 with any of your family members before you attended

16 Star’s deposition.

17 A. Never.

18 Q. You never discussed the J.C. Penney case

19 with Gavin or your mom or Star after Gavin’s

20 deposition.

21 A. Never.

22 Q. And you never discussed the J.C. Penney case

23 with Star, your mom or Gavin after Star’s

24 deposition.

25 A. Never.

26 Q. You just kind of got there, silently

27 listened, left, and never talked to anybody about

28 it, right. 970






1 A. No.

2 Q. Okay. Now, you testified last week about

3 seeing Mr. Jackson and your brothers go into the

4 wine cellar, correct.

5 A. I saw somebody going downstairs. And then

6 when I was already in the wine cellar, I knew who it

7 was.

8 Q. Was that the only time you ever saw anybody

9 go into the wine cellar.

10 A. I saw several times people go down, but I

11 never really went. I always saw, like, open --

12 people going down, but I never really followed. It

13 was just that one time.

14 Q. Just the one time.

15 A. Yes.

16 Q. And you described the --

17 THE COURT: Excuse me, Counsel. Mr. Jackson

18 needs to go to the rest room. We’ll take a break.

19 MR. OXMAN: Thank you, Your Honor.

20 (Recess taken.)

21 MR. SANGER: Your Honor, would it be useful

22 to take care of a stipulation on a technical matter

23 while Mr. Jackson’s --

24 THE COURT: I think we need to wait till he

25 comes back.

26 MR. SANGER: Okay. Very well.

27 MR. MESEREAU: May I see Mr. Jackson, Your

28 Honor. 971







1 (Brief interruption.)

2 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Do you recall, Miss

3 Arvizo, giving the Santa Barbara Sheriffs a detailed

4 description of the wine cellar at Neverland.

5 A. Yes.

6 Q. And what did you tell them.

7 A. I told them that I walked down the stairs,

8 and then you make a right, and there’s a room and it

9 has sleeping bags. And then there’s another room,

10 and it’s a way smaller room. And on the left-hand

11 side, there’s wine bottles on the wall. And then

12 there’s a -- I think there’s a counter in the room,

13 too, and cupboards.

14 Q. Did you tell them anything about sleeping

15 bags.

16 A. Yeah.

17 Q. What did you tell them.

18 A. That after you walk down the stairs and you

19 make a right into the room, and I think there’s

20 sleeping bags on the wall. I don’t remember.

21 Q. You told them about cubbyholes with sleeping

22 bags, correct.

23 A. Yes.

24 Q. Now, you’re telling the jury today that

25 you’ve only been down there one time, correct.

26 A. Yes.

27 Q. The truth is, you’ve been down there many

28 times with your brothers without Mr. Jackson, true. 972






1 A. No.

2 Q. Do you recall being interviewed by the Santa

3 Barbara Sheriffs on August 13th, 2003, or

4 approximately that time.

5 A. Yes.

6 Q. Do you remember, you were asked when you

7 observed the wine cellar, and you said “many times”

8 during your visits to Neverland.

9 A. Well, many times I’ve seen it. But I never

10 went down there many times.

11 Q. How can you see it if you don’t go down the

12 stairs into the wine cellar.

13 A. Maybe I misunderstood the questions. But I

14 only remember going down there once and seeing it.

15 Q. Are you saying you never told the Santa

16 Barbara Sheriffs you’d been down there many times.

17 A. I don’t remember. All I remember is being

18 down there once and being able to see everything.

19 I don’t --

20 Q. Did you ever learn that your brothers had

21 been caught down there without Mr. Jackson, having

22 broken into the cellar and drinking.

23 A. I don’t remember that.

24 MR. SNEDDON: Object. It also -- excuse me.

25 Calls for -- assumes facts not in evidence.

26 THE COURT: Sustained.

27 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Now, you’re aware that

28 alcohol is kept in the kitchen area, correct. 973






1 A. I don’t know.

2 Q. Did you ever tell the police there’s a

3 glass-like closure on a refrigerator that has

4 alcoholic beverages in the kitchen area.

5 A. I know behind, like, a glass cupboard

6 there’s some -- I don’t know.

7 Q. Did you ever see any alcoholic beverages in

8 that refrigerator area.

9 A. I don’t know. I don’t remember.

10 Q. Well, you’ve been in that area many times,

11 correct, with your brothers, right.

12 A. When I would go to eat myself, yes.

13 Q. And typically when would you go to eat by

14 yourself.

15 A. In the afternoon.

16 Q. And when you went by yourself, were you

17 easily able to get in the main house.

18 A. Yes.

19 Q. How did you get in the main house.

20 A. I would either ring for somebody to come, or

21 if I remembered the code to get into the main house.

22 Q. And how did you get the code.

23 A. One of the security guards gave it to me.

24 Q. And did you have any other codes.

25 A. No. That was the only one I had.

26 Q. Your brothers had codes, didn’t they.

27 A. Yes.

28 Q. They had codes to the wine cellar, didn’t 974






1 they.

2 A. I don’t remember that.

3 Q. They had codes to Mr. Jackson’s room, didn’t

4 they.

5 A. I didn’t know they had that one.

6 Q. And they went up to the room without Mr.

7 Jackson present, correct.

8 A. Anytime Mr. Jackson wasn’t on the ranch,

9 they were with me.

10 Q. That’s not what you said last week, is it.

11 Last week you said that when your brothers were on

12 the ranch, they always left you alone, correct.

13 A. No. When Mr. Jackson wasn’t on the ranch,

14 they were with me.

15 Q. Well, you had knowledge that your brothers

16 were going into the main house when Mr. Jackson

17 wasn’t even there, correct.

18 A. When Mr. Jackson wasn’t there, they were

19 with me. There was no reason for us to be apart if

20 Mr. Jackson wasn’t there.

21 Q. Well, you -- correct me if I’m wrong, didn’t

22 you tell the jury last week, “When I would visit

23 Neverland, my brothers would go off and, for the

24 most part, leave me alone”. Did you say that.

25 A. If Mr. Jackson was there, yes, I said that

26 last week.

27 Q. So you’re -- now you’re saying whenever

28 Mr. Jackson wasn’t there, all three of you hung 975






1 around together; is that right.

2 A. Yes.

3 Q. Did you go into the main house together when

4 Mr. Jackson wasn’t there.

5 A. Yes. To go eat and watch T.V., yeah.

6 Q. And how many times do you think you did that

7 when Mr. Jackson wasn’t there.

8 A. I don’t know.

9 Q. Many times, correct.

10 A. Well, they’re growing boys. They wanted to

11 eat a lot, I guess.

12 Q. And you visited Neverland many occasions

13 when Mr. Jackson wasn’t even there, right.

14 A. No. Not me.

15 Q. Well, you went there a couple of times with

16 Chris Tucker, did you not.

17 A. Yes.

18 Q. Mr. Jackson wasn’t there during those

19 visits, right.

20 A. Yes.

21 Q. And did you go into the main house with

22 Chris Tucker.

23 A. Well, with -- with Chris Tucker, who was

24 there, and with my brothers, yes.

25 Q. And would you simply grab food when you

26 wanted it.

27 A. Whatever was on the -- where the drinks

28 were. I wouldn’t go into the kitchen. 976







1 Q. Well, if you go in the main house, you walk

2 into a lobby area, correct.

3 A. When you go into the -- through the back

4 way, there’s glass refrigerators, and I would grab a

5 drink from there. But I wouldn’t go into the

6 kitchen area and grab stuff.

7 Q. Well, you have to go into the kitchen area

8 to grab food, don’t you.

9 A. To sit down, and they make it for you.

10 Q. But to go in on your own and to pick up food

11 in the kitchen area, you have to go into the

12 kitchen, correct.

13 A. Yeah, but I’m not going in there where the

14 refrigerators are and stuff.

15 Q. If you’re in the kitchen area, you have to

16 be near the refrigerators, don’t you.

17 A. But I’m sitting down. I’m not making it for

18 myself or going through things.

19 Q. But if -- you’re talking about sitting down

20 at the counter area. Is that what you’re talking

21 about.

22 A. Like the bench area, yes.

23 Q. And Mr. Jackson has buns and rolls and

24 things available right where you sit down, correct.

25 A. Yes.

26 Q. And right to your left is the refrigerator

27 area, true.

28 A. Towards the back area and to the left, yes. 977






1 Q. And there’s sliding doors, right.

2 A. They’re -- no, they’re pulling doors.

3 Q. How do you know they’re pulling doors.

4 A. Because I would open them and get a drink

5 once in a while.

6 Q. And your brothers would also, correct.

7 A. Yes.

8 Q. And you will find alcohol in those

9 refrigerator areas, correct.

10 A. All I remember is there was Yoohoos, juice,

11 different waters. I don’t remember seeing alcohol.

12 Q. But clearly your brothers would go into that

13 refrigerator area when Mr. Jackson wasn’t around,

14 right.

15 A. Yes.

16 Q. They would go into the kitchen when Mr.

17 Jackson wasn’t around, right.

18 A. To get something, yes.

19 Q. And they would walk through the house when

20 Mr. Jackson wasn’t around, correct.

21 A. We wouldn’t really go into the main house,

22 because there wasn’t really anything else to do but

23 eat.

24 Q. Well, you have all kinds of rooms with toys,

25 games, all kinds of things in that main house, don’t

26 you.

27 A. But I’m not really interested in those kind

28 of little toys. 978






1 Q. Well, they’re not all little toys, now, are

2 they.

3 A. Mainly from what I remember, yes.

4 Q. Your brothers were caught on numerous

5 occasions in that house with Mr. Jackson absent,

6 right.

7 A. To go get something to eat, that’s all I

8 remember.

9 Q. Well, you described in detail to the

10 sheriffs what you saw in Mr. Jackson’s room,

11 correct.

12 A. Yes.

13 Q. You described in detail that there was a

14 lower level, a stairway, and a higher level,

15 correct.

16 A. Yes.

17 Q. You told the sheriffs in detail what you saw

18 on those various levels, right.

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. That’s because you were in there on numerous

21 occasions, correct.

22 A. No.

23 Q. And you know that your brothers had that

24 code to get in there when Mr. Jackson wasn’t around,

25 didn’t they.

26 A. Yeah, but the outer door, that’s locked too.

27 Q. But they seemed to get into that also,

28 didn’t they. 979








1 A. Not that I remember, no.

2 Q. Well, you gave the Santa Barbara Sheriffs a

3 detailed description of Mr. Jackson’s bathroom,

4 right.

5 A. The one that’s inside the room, yes.

6 Q. Well, you had spent time in there, correct.

7 A. No. I never went to the rest room in there.

8 Q. How could you give a detailed description of

9 the rest room if you haven’t spent time looking at

10 what’s in there.

11 A. Because I was in the room the one time, and

12 I was just looking around. I had never been in

13 there. I wanted to see. And you just -- you can

14 look in and see what’s in there.

15 Q. When your brothers and you were at Neverland

16 without Mr. Jackson, did you go into the theater.

17 A. Yes.

18 Q. What did you do in the theater with your

19 brothers when Mr. Jackson wasn’t there.

20 A. Watch movies, get little snacks.

21 Q. What are the kinds of movies you used to

22 watch.

23 A. I don’t remember.

24 Q. Okay. How did you get the movies.

25 A. We would ask somebody from the front. I

26 don’t remember.

27 Q. Okay. But you had access to the theater

28 when you wanted, right. 980






1 A. Yes. It was open.

2 Q. No one ever told you you couldn’t enter the

3 theater and watch a film, right.

4 A. Not that I remember, no.

5 Q. Nobody ever told you you couldn’t have food

6 in the theater, popcorn, ice cream, sodas, whatever

7 you wanted, right.

8 A. Not that I remember, no.

9 Q. And you indicated that one particular -- you

10 first met Mr. Jackson approximately in the year

11 2000, right.

12 A. Yes.

13 Q. You indicated that you didn’t come back, you

14 don’t think, in the year 2001, right.

15 A. Yes.

16 Q. Okay. You started to come back in 2002,

17 right.

18 A. Yes.

19 Q. When did Chris Tucker first take you to

20 Neverland, if you know.

21 A. In 2001. Because we didn’t meet him until

22 2001.

23 Q. And you indicated that at one point Mr.

24 Jackson had given your family a vehicle, right.

25 A. Yes.

26 Q. Were you ever in any discussions with Aja

27 Tucker about getting another vehicle from Chris

28 Tucker. 981






1 A. I know -- because we didn’t have no car at

2 that time. And Chris had told me, “I’m giving you

3 guys a Christmas present, and it’s Aja’s old car.”

4 Q. And you gave Aja and Chris your mother’s

5 driver’s license information, correct.

6 A. Yes.

7 Q. You gave it to them so the car could be

8 transferred into your mother’s name, right.

9 A. Yeah, they wanted it so they could put it in

10 my mom’s name.

11 Q. You never told them that Michael Jackson had

12 given your car a family as well.

13 A. Well, we didn’t have that car at that time.

14 We had no car at that time.

15 Q. When did you first get a car from Mr.

16 Jackson.

17 A. When Gavin was -- during his chemotherapy.

18 It was for Gavin.

19 Q. And didn’t you tell the jury last week that

20 you never asked Chris Tucker for any assistance.

21 A. We didn’t ask him for it. He said, “I want

22 to give this to you guys for a Christmas present.”

23 Q. So you then got the driver’s license info

24 from your mother and sent it to Chris.

25 A. No, I gave it to Aja.

26 Q. Did you ever get that car.

27 A. No.

28 Q. What happened. 982






1 A. I don’t know. It just -- we didn’t get it

2 after all, because of -- the communication broke off

3 because of this.

4 Q. Okay. So in your mind, but for this

5 investigation, you would have gotten a second car

6 from Aja, correct.

7 A. We’ve only -- we didn’t have a car at that

8 time, so it wouldn’t have been a second car.

9 Q. Okay.

10 A. We were driving the bus. We were in the

11 bus.

12 MR. MESEREAU: Your Honor, at this time I’d

13 like to, with the Court’s permission, play the Brad

14 Miller interview tape for the jury.

15 MR. SANGER: Your Honor, let me address a

16 technical matter on that, if I may.

17 THE COURT: Yes.

18 MR. SANGER: I’ve talked with Mr. Sneddon,

19 and this is acceptable. We’re not quite sure what

20 all the technical problems were, so we got a new

21 disk that was made directly from the original, and

22 it is not the one that’s marked 5000.

23 And what we would ask to do - it’s in the

24 machine right now - after we play it, we’d ask that

25 the new disk be marked as 5000, and this --

26 THE BAILIFF: You need to speak into the

27 microphone.

28 MR. SANGER: And this old disk is -- the one 983






1 that was marked just be given back to us, if that’s

2 all right.

3 THE COURT: In other words, you want to

4 exchange the new disk for the old disk and keep the

5 same number.

6 MR. SANGER: That’s correct.

7 THE COURT: Is that agreeable, Mr. Sneddon.

8 MR. SNEDDON: It is, Your Honor.

9 THE COURT: All right. I’ll approve that.

10 THE BAILIFF: Are you playing off the DVD.

11 MR. SANGER: We’re going to play off the

12 DVD. And with the Court’s permission now, we will

13 play Exhibit 5000.

14 THE BAILIFF: Are you playing off the player

15 down there.

16 MR. SANGER: I’m playing off the player down

17 there.

18 THE BAILIFF: So you need to go to “Input

19 4,” and you need to push the DVD player.

20 MR. SANGER: Right. I think they had it all

21 set up.

22 THE COURT: And the screen doesn’t matter,

23 because it’s just an audiotape.

24 MR. SANGER: May I proceed, Your Honor.

25 THE COURT: Yes.

26 (Whereupon, an audiotape, Defendant’s

27 Exhibit No. 5000, was played for the Court and

28 jury.) 984






1 THE COURT: Lorna, is that in evidence.

2 THE CLERK: No.

3 MR. MESEREAU: May I proceed, Your Honor.

4 THE COURT: Are you offering that in

5 evidence.

6 MR. MESEREAU: Yes, we are.

7 MR. SNEDDON: Your Honor, I have no

8 objection. With the Court’s permission, I would

9 like an opportunity to get a copy of that one. I

10 won’t say anything else. But just -- if the Court

11 would give me permission to get a copy.

12 THE COURT: You have permission.

13 MR. SNEDDON: Thank you.

14 THE COURT: It’s admitted into evidence.

15 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Miss Arvizo, you testified

16 last week that you didn’t know Mr. Miller worked for

17 Mr. Geragos, correct.

18 A. Yes.

19 Q. He said that twice in this interview, true.

20 A. Yes.

21 Q. Have you ever discussed with your mother who

22 Mr. Brad Miller worked for.

23 A. Wasn’t really a subject.

24 Q. Well, have you ever discussed it with her.

25 A. No.

26 Q. Now, you know that your mother appeared for

27 a pre-trial hearing in this case a number of months

28 ago, right. 985






1 A. Yes.

2 Q. And you knew the issue was whether or not

3 she knew Mr. Miller worked for Geragos, didn’t you.

4 A. No. All I knew is she came up here.

5 Q. You never discussed what she was coming up

6 here for with her.

7 A. No.

8 Q. And never discussed what she said.

9 A. No.

10 Q. Okay. Now, this interview that you just

11 heard took place on February 16th, 2003, right.

12 A. Yes.

13 Q. And you heard that date when Mr. Miller

14 began the interview, right.

15 A. Yes.

16 Q. This was after your mother and Gavin had

17 sued J.C. Penney for false imprisonment and sexual

18 assault, true.

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. And this was after your mother had claimed

21 that security guards at J.C. Penney, in a public

22 parking lot, pulled her breasts out of her blouse

23 and falsely imprisoned her, right.

24 MR. SNEDDON: Your Honor, I am going to

25 object. There’s no facts into evidence of this.

26 She said she didn’t know anything about the lawsuit.

27 Counsel is just doing this deliberately.

28 THE COURT: Sustained. 986






1 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Now, this interview on

2 February 16th, 2003, was also after your mother had

3 called the police on David Arvizo, correct.

4 A. Yes.

5 Q. It was after she had called the police on

6 David Arvizo and accused him of false imprisonment

7 and molestation, right.

8 A. After I had told her, yes.

9 Q. Okay. Approximately one week after this

10 interview, you and your mother went to another

11 attorney, correct.

12 A. I don’t remember.

13 Q. You went to someone named William Dickerman,

14 correct.

15 A. I don’t know William.

16 Q. Well, you met with him at The Laugh Factory,

17 right.

18 A. I know his name is Bill. I don’t know.

19 Q. And you and your mother met with him to try

20 and put together a lawsuit against Michael Jackson,

21 right.

22 A. I never met with him. I only met with him

23 that one time.

24 Q. What time was this.

25 A. A while ago.

26 Q. And approximately when; do you know.

27 A. No.

28 Q. Well, you testified last week that at some 987






1 point, Vinnie picked you and your mom up and drove

2 you to The Laugh Factory on Sunset, right.

3 A. All of us went. It was me, my brothers, and

4 my mom.

5 Q. You all went to The Laugh Factory on Sunset,

6 right.

7 A. Yes.

8 Q. And that was after your interview with the

9 three social workers, right.

10 A. I think so. I don’t remember -- no, it

11 wasn’t. Because after the interview with the three

12 ladies was when Aja took us up to Neverland.

13 Q. When did you go to The Laugh Factory on

14 Sunset with Vinnie.

15 A. I think it was during the time we were in

16 Calabasas. I don’t remember.

17 Q. You stopped at The Laugh Factory with

18 Vinnie, right.

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. And your mom got out to meet Jamie Masada

21 and a lawyer named Bill Dickerman, right.

22 A. I didn’t know who he was at that time.

23 Q. Okay.

24 A. And, like, Gavin got off with her.

25 Q. So Gavin and your mom went to meet with the

26 attorney named Bill Dickerman in The Laugh Factory,

27 right.

28 A. All I knew is they were going to go see 988






1 Jamie. I met him when I went upstairs for a few --

2 couple of seconds. And I didn’t hear what they were

3 saying. I just said -- I gave my mom a message and

4 ran back downstairs.

5 Q. When you say you met him, do you mean you

6 met Attorney Bill Dickerman.

7 A. Yeah, I just saw him there. I didn’t

8 really --

9 Q. So your mom and Gavin were meeting with him,

10 right.

11 A. Jamie was there also, yes.

12 Q. And that’s after this interview with Brad

13 Miller on February 16th, 2003, right.

14 A. I don’t know.

15 Q. Okay. Did you ever meet with Attorney Bill

16 Dickerman after that day at The Laugh Factory.

17 A. A while after, yes.

18 Q. And how many times did you meet with

19 Attorney Bill Dickerman.

20 A. Once.

21 Q. Were you with your mother.

22 A. All of us were in the room.

23 Q. And do you mean Gavin as well.

24 A. Yes.

25 Q. And Star as well.

26 A. Yes.

27 Q. Okay. Is that the only meeting you recall

28 ever having with Attorney Bill Dickerman. 989






1 A. Yes.

2 Q. Now, at some point, you went and met with an

3 attorney named Larry Feldman, right.

4 A. Yes.

5 Q. That was after you first met Attorney Bill

6 Dickerman, correct.

7 A. Yes.

8 Q. And that was at an office in Beverly Hills,

9 right.

10 A. I don’t know where it’s at.

11 Q. Okay. You went with your mother, Gavin and

12 Star, right.

13 A. And Jamie was there. And so was Jay.

14 Q. Jay Jackson.

15 A. I think he went with us. I don’t remember.

16 But Jamie was.

17 Q. Now, at this recorded interview by Brad

18 Miller that we just heard of February 16th, 2003,

19 Major Jay Jackson is sitting there listening to it,

20 right.

21 A. He’s sitting there, yes.

22 Q. And it’s in his home, right.

23 A. Yes.

24 Q. And you’re saying that after this interview,

25 Jay Jackson went to a lawyer with the family.

26 A. I don’t remember when we went, but it wasn’t

27 during then.

28 Q. And the interview with the three social 990






1 workers was at Jay Jackson’s home also, right.

2 A. Yes.

3 Q. And was Jay Jackson there that day.

4 A. No, he wasn’t.

5 Q. How many times did you meet with Attorney

6 Larry Feldman.

7 A. Once.

8 Q. And at some point, he agreed to represent

9 the whole family, true.

10 A. I don’t know that.

11 Q. Well, you knew that he had sued Michael

12 Jackson in the early ‘90s, true.

13 A. I didn’t know who he was. I just --

14 Q. Never discussed it with your mom.

15 A. Never.

16 Q. All right. Will you agree that shortly

17 after this recorded interview of February 16th,

18 2003, your family began meeting with lawyers.

19 A. No. It wasn’t shortly after then, no.

20 Q. How long after it was it.

21 A. I don’t know. But it was way after.

22 Q. Way after. Like how long; do you think.

23 A. After March. I don’t know.

24 Q. Okay. But you met with Dickerman --

25 A. Once.

26 Q. -- on Sunset.

27 A. I didn’t meet with him. I just saw him

28 there. 991






1 Q. Okay. Okay. And you think that was after

2 you left the Calabasas Inn, right.

3 A. I’m not sure.

4 Q. Okay. Okay. Now, you’d agree that in this

5 recorded interview with Brad Miller, and in the

6 rebuttal videotape that was shown last week, and in

7 your interviews with the social workers, your mother

8 continually praised Michael Jackson as a father

9 figure, right.

10 A. Yes.

11 Q. And you continually praised Michael Jackson

12 as a father figure, right.

13 A. I was just really copying, because I didn’t

14 know what to say. I was just latching onto

15 something because David was never really a father.

16 So I was just latching on something to call a

17 father. I didn’t know what a father is.

18 Q. Did you ever discuss with your mother,

19 “We’re going to call Michael Jackson a father

20 figure”.

21 A. No.

22 Q. Never did.

23 A. No. It’s the boys that brought it up.

24 Q. Okay. Well, certainly your mother praises

25 him in all of these interviews as being a father to

26 her children, true.

27 A. I guess seeing the boys so excited, you

28 know, anything that makes us happy, she -- I don’t 992







1 know. She gets it from us.

2 Q. You were sitting in this interview when your

3 mother said, essentially, she liked the boys to be

4 with Michael Jackson at night because they’re safe,

5 right.

6 A. I think she was just talking about the times

7 that Gavin would go to Neverland with Gavin and we

8 don’t know what happened.

9 Q. But your mother was encouraging your

10 brothers to go into the main house and be with

11 Michael Jackson, right.

12 A. You would have to ask her that. But I

13 would -- she never encouraged it. It was the boys

14 wanted to be there.

15 Q. Well, doesn’t she say that in that recorded

16 interview.

17 A. If it makes him happy, she’s going to push

18 it. She loves for us to be happy. Anything that

19 makes us happy, she’s going to say, “Go ahead, go.”

20 Q. But isn’t it true that, as far as you know,

21 she pushed your brothers to be in the main house

22 with Michael Jackson shortly before she went to a

23 lawyer to try and develop a lawsuit against him,

24 right.

25 A. What are you asking me. Like --

26 Q. If you know an answer to what I just said.

27 Do you have any --

28 MR. SNEDDON: I’m going to object as 993







1 argumentative.

2 THE COURT: She’s asked you to rephrase the

3 question.

4 MR. MESEREAU: Okay. Okay.

5 Q. As far as you know, your mother was

6 encouraging your brothers to be in Michael Jackson’s

7 house at night shortly before she went to a lawyer

8 to try and develop a lawsuit against Michael

9 Jackson, right.

10 MR. SNEDDON: I’m going to object to that

11 question as argumentative and assumes facts not in

12 evidence. It’s also compound.

13 THE COURT: Sustained on compound.

14 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: You would agree, you heard

15 your mother on many occasions encourage your

16 brothers to go into the main house and spend time

17 with Michael Jackson in the evening, right.

18 A. She wouldn’t encourage them. She’d just see

19 them happy. She wouldn’t push them to go do it.

20 She just -- they would go.

21 Q. You heard your mother --

22 A. I heard it, but I’m telling you what I know.

23 Q. Okay. She would encourage your brothers to

24 spend time with Michael Jackson at night because she

25 wanted Michael to be the father figure in the

26 family, right.

27 A. She never encouraged it. It’s whatever the

28 boys want, whatever makes them happy, she’s going to 994






1 let them do.

2 Q. Now, you said in the interview with Brad

3 Miller, referring to Michael Jackson, “He’s a bigger

4 father to all of us. He’s given us safety. He’s

5 given us love. He’s given us everything we’ve ever

6 wanted. He’s been our father figure. He’s the only

7 thing we know to be a father.” You said that,

8 right.

9 A. Yes.

10 Q. And you meant it when you said it, didn’t

11 you.

12 A. At that point, I still liked Mr. Jackson.

13 And that was the point that David had left and --

14 I don’t know, I was just latching onto something,

15 because I don’t know what a description of a father

16 is. I had 16 years of just abuse. I don’t know

17 what it is. I just latched onto something.

18 Q. Do you want to take a minute.

19 A. I’m fine.

20 THE COURT: I think it’s time for the morning

21 break now.

22 MR. MESEREAU: Okay.

1 MR. MESEREAU: Thank you, Your Honor.

2 Q. BY MR. MESEREAU: Miss Arvizo, in the Brad

3 Miller tape-recording that we just heard --

4 THE BAILIFF: Would you turn your microphone

5 on, please.

6 MR. MESEREAU: Oh, excuse me.

7 Let me start again.

8 Q. Ms. Arvizo, in the Brad Miller

9 tape-recording that we just heard, your mother talks

10 about the family being inundated with British, local

11 newspapers, national newspapers, magazines, T.V.

12 shows, Celebrity Justice, et cetera. Do you

13 remember that.

14 A. What’s the word “inundated”. What does that

15 mean.

16 Q. Pardon me.

17 A. What does “inundated” mean.

18 Q. I’m sorry. I should have chose a better

19 word.

20 Your mother says that different kinds of

21 media have attempted to contact her; do you recall

22 that.

23 A. Yes.

24 Q. And do you recall her being contacted by

25 Celebrity Justice.

26 A. The only one --

27 Q. Do you remember that.

28 A. The only one I remember is the one coming to 1002






1 the apartment.

2 Q. Okay.

3 A. That’s all I remember.

4 Q. Okay. She says, “The children’s old school

5 and the children’s new school are being contacted by

6 media.” Did you know anything about that.

7 A. I don’t know.

8 Q. Okay. And if the school told that to your

9 mother, you weren’t involved, right.

10 A. All I remember is that one coming to the

11 apartment. I don’t remember any others.

12 Q. So she uses words, “It’s been swarmed.”

13 But you don’t know anything more than what you just

14 testified to, right.

15 A. Yeah.

16 Q. Okay. Now, your mother says, “We’ve been

17 rejected, neglected, spit on, fried, tried, burned,

18 abused, the doors shut in our face, opportunities

19 lost. And Michael said -- took us from way behind

20 in the line and pulled us up to the front and said,

21 ‘You matter to me. You may not matter to many

22 people, but you matter to me and that’s what’s

23 important.’”

24 Do you know what she was referring to when

25 she talked about your family being rejected,

26 neglected, spit on, fried, et cetera.

27 A. I don’t know. I guess emotions from David.

28 I don’t know. 1003






1 Q. Okay. You were present with your mom when

2 she reported David to the Los Angeles Police

3 Department, right.

4 A. Which time.

5 Q. Well, there was October -- excuse me,

6 October 1st, 2001, do you remember that.

7 A. The one that I asked her to call the police,

8 I was present for that one. But the one that -- the

9 first one, I don’t -- I wasn’t there.

10 Q. Were you present when your mother told the

11 Los Angeles Police Department that Michael Jackson,

12 Fritz Coleman and Kobe Bryant would assist her with

13 this incident.

14 A. I don’t remember that.

15 Q. Okay. Were you present with her on

16 October 4th, 2001, when she called the Los Angeles

17 Police Department about your father.

18 A. I don’t know the dates, but I was only

19 present after I told her what had happened with me

20 and my father. Then she called the police. The

21 other one -- any other incident I was not present.

22 Q. Were you present when she told the police

23 officer from Los Angeles that she wanted to show him

24 a videotape and numerous photos of she and her

25 children spending time with various celebrities.

26 A. I don’t remember that.

27 Q. Okay. Do you recall your mother said on the

28 Brad Miller interview that Michael Jackson prayed 1004






1 with the family.

2 A. Yes, I heard it.

3 Q. That happened one time in the theater,

4 didn’t it.

5 A. No.

6 Q. You don’t remember that.

7 A. No.

8 Q. Do you remember the family praying with

9 Michael Jackson.

10 A. Not really.

11 Q. Okay. Do you think maybe your mother and

12 Michael and the brothers did it without you.

13 A. I don’t believe so.

14 Q. Is that possible.

15 A. My mom prays like every couple of seconds,

16 like little prayers, so --

17 Q. Okay. Now, you discussed the Bashir tape

18 with Attorney Larry Feldman, didn’t you.

19 A. I don’t remember what we discussed.

20 Q. Well, didn’t your family approach him and

21 talk about the Bashir tape.

22 A. All I remember -- we had a meeting that day.

23 I don’t remember. It was too long ago.

24 Q. Did you ever drink alcohol on a plane where

25 Michael Jackson was present.

26 A. I didn’t drink alcohol on a plane.

27 Q. Thank you.

28 Do you recall meeting with a psychologist 1005






1 named Stan Katz.

2 A. I remember meeting Mr. Katz.

3 Q. And you were referred to him by Attorney

4 Larry Feldman, right.

5 A. All I know is we went that day.

6 Q. And to your knowledge, Mr. Katz has a

7 business relationship with Attorney Larry Feldman,

8 right.

9 A. I don’t know.

10 Q. Okay. One final question: Have you told

11 the truth throughout your testimony.

12 A. Yes.

13 MR. MESEREAU: Thank you.

14 THE COURT: Mr. Sneddon.

19 REDIRECT EXAMINATION

20 BY MR. SNEDDON:

21 Q. All right. Miss Arvizo, first of all, I’d

22 like to direct your attention to the time that you

23 were in the car with Vinnie and your brother outside

24 The Laugh Factory. Okay.

25 A. Yes.

26 Q. At some point in time you were given a

27 message by Vinnie and sent inside, correct.

28 A. Yes. 1006






1 Q. What was the message that he gave you to

2 give to your mother.

3 A. To tell my mom to hurry up, because we

4 needed to go.

5 Q. Is that what you did.

6 A. Yes, I went and got her. Or I went and told

7 her. She came out after me.

8 Q. After you gave the message, did you stick

9 around at all.

10 A. No, I went.

11 Q. Now, you told the jury that there was this

12 incident which led to your request to have your

13 mother call the police --

14 A. Yes.

15 Q. -- involving you and your father.

16 A. Yes.

17 Q. What happened.

18 A. It was before school. I was walking to

19 McDonald’s to go get something to eat. And my

20 father was parked in the parking lot at McDonald’s

21 across from my high school, and he started waving at

22 me, and to -- going like this, to “come here.” And

23 I just kept trying to go and I didn’t want to, but I

24 was too scared of him. And I walked over, and he

25 told me to get in the car.

26 Q. So did you do that.

27 A. Yes.

28 Q. What happened when you got in the car. 1007






1 A. He locked the doors, and then he was just

2 telling me, “What are you guys doing.” And he just

3 started being mean to me. And I just, “Yes, Daddy.

4 Yes, Daddy. I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

5 Q. Did you try to leave. Did you tell him you

6 wanted to leave.

7 A. I told him I had to leave. It was already,

8 like, during my first period. I had to leave. And

9 he just wouldn’t let me go. He said, “No, I need to

10 talk to you,” and he would grab my arm, and I didn’t

11 know -- I was just really scared. I didn’t -- I

12 didn’t know what to do.

13 Q. It’s okay. It’s okay.

14 During the time that you were in the car

15 with your father and he wouldn’t let you go, did he

16 ever molest you at that time.

17 A. No.

18 Q. Now, you’ve heard Mr. Mesereau use the word

19 “terrorist threats.” Do you remember him saying

20 that.

21 A. Yes.

22 Q. Did you ever use those words to the police

23 officer.

24 A. No.

25 Q. Do you even know what that means.

26 A. All I know is the word “threats,” so I’m

27 just putting two and two together, like threatening

28 threats. I don’t know. 1008







1 Q. But you never used the word “terrorist”.

2 A. No.

3 Q. Now, you told the ladies and gentlemen of

4 the jury there was a time when you attempted to talk

5 to Carol Lamir about your father’s abusive behavior

6 towards the family.

7 A. Yes.

8 Q. Do you remember that.

9 A. Yes.

10 Q. And you indicated, I believe, that she

11 didn’t want to listen to it.

12 A. She didn’t want to listen to it. She always

13 seemed like she had kind of a -- I don’t know, a

14 crush on my father, because my father would go cook

15 for her and stuff.

16 Q. I just have a couple more questions.

17 Before your family went to Miami to be with

18 the defendant in this case, Mr. Jackson - okay. -

19 before that time, your brother Gavin had already

20 been in remission.

21 A. Yes.

22 Q. For some time.

23 A. Yes.

24 Q. And did you ever hear your mother express

25 her belief as to who was responsible for that

26 remission.

27 A. Yes.

28 Q. Who. 1009








1 A. God. And only God.

2 Q. You never heard her mention Michael Jackson.

3 A. No.

4 Q. With regard to the -- going back to the

5 incident with your father in the car, okay.

6 A. Okay.

7 Q. The one at school. I just -- my colleagues

8 want me to ask you a question, so I’ll do it.

9 A. Okay.

10 Q. You said that you didn’t know the word

11 “terrorist,” but you knew the word “threats”.

12 A. Yes.

13 Q. Did you -- in your conversations with police

14 officers in describing what happened, did you use

15 the word “threats”.

16 A. No, I just told them what he had told me.

17 Q. And what did he tell you.

18 A. That we better not say anything about what

19 happened, because he could have us killed.

20 Q. Do you know what the term “false

21 imprisonment” means.

22 A. Not really.

23 Q. Did you describe to the police officers what

24 happened.

25 A. Yes.

26 Q. And what words did you use to describe what

27 happened with regard to your ability to leave the

28 car. 1010






1 A. I told him he locked it, and that anytime I

2 really tried to leave, he would grab my arm and tell

3 me “No.”

4 Q. Now, lastly, with regard to the questions

5 that you were asked by Mr. Mesereau, and you were

6 candid with the jury and told them that there were

7 statements that you made to the social workers which

8 were not true, do you recall that.

9 A. Yes.

10 MR. MESEREAU: Objection; leading.

11 MR. SNEDDON: Foundational, Your Honor.

12 THE COURT: Overruled.

13 You may -- go ahead.

14 Q. BY MR. SNEDDON: With regard to those

15 particular questions that you answered to Mr.

16 Mesereau that you had lied, why did you lie.

17 A. I don’t know. I just -- I kind of still

18 liked Mr. Jackson, and I didn’t want him to get in

19 trouble. And I know I was scared because the

20 bodyguard was there before. And just mixed

21 feelings. I didn’t know, really. I was just....

22 MR. SNEDDON: All right. I have nothing

23 further, Your Honor. Thank you.

24 THE COURT: Mr. Mesereau.

25 MR. MESEREAU: Just briefly.

12 A. By Michael.

13 Q. And what did he say to you.

14 A. He leaned over and he handed it to me. I

15 thought it was Diet Coke so -- I didn’t want to be

16 rude, so I took a drink, and it tasted like the

17 smell of, like, rubbing alcohol. It tasted

18 really -- so I handed it back to him. And I asked

19 him what it was, and then he said it was wine.

20 Q. Did you drink any more out of that can

21 during this trip.

22 A. No.

23 Q. Did -- tell me what you saw your brother and

24 Mr. Jackson doing during the trip.

26 feel too good. So my brother leaned over on his --

27 on Michael’s chest and he -- I saw Michael’s head

28 licking my brother’s -- the top of his head. 1089






1 Q. What do you mean.

2 A. He was just licking his head.

3 Q. How long did that last.

4 A. I don’t know. Six seconds probably.

24 A. He made a crank call.

25 Q. What do you mean, “a crank call”.

27 Q. You have to lean into the phone there, lean

28 into the microphone, if you would. 1090






1 What is a crank call, to you.

2 A. To me.

3 Q. What does it mean.

4 A. Oh. Just when you call someone and hang up

5 on them.

6 Q. All right.

7 A. That’s what it means to me.

8 But what I saw Michael doing, was he called

9 up and he said he was having a consensus, and he

10 wanted to know how big her p-u-s-s-y was. And

11 that’s what he said to her.

12 Q. How many such calls did you hear him make.

13 A. Two, on the plane.

14 Q. Did your brother make any calls.

15 A. I don’t remember. He probably did.

16 Q. Did you make any calls.

17 A. No.

18 Q. Now, you mentioned something about a watch.

19 When was the first time that you saw your brother

20 Gavin with a watch.

21 A. It was at the end of the flight, and I saw

22 it on his wrist.

23 Q. Now, did your brother ordinarily have a

24 watch.

25 A. No, he never wears a watch.

26 Q. The first time you saw it was when you got

28 You’re indicating on a row of buttons to 1141

7 Q. Careful with that razor.

8 A. And then you’ll push “Mute,” and then you’ll

9 push on the button that’s lit up.

10 Q. And then what.

11 A. And then you can listen to the conversation.

12 Q. All right. Okay. The next photograph.

13 A. 71.

14 Q. Yes. What is that.

15 A. This is downstairs, Michael’s bedroom.

16 Q. All right. And have you been in that room.

25 A. No.

26 Q. I’m sorry. I didn’t hear you.

27 A. No.

28 Q. Okay. All right. Put that one down, then, 1143






1 if you would.

2 76.

3 A. Yes.

4 Q. Do you recognize that.

5 A. Yes.

6 Q. What is that.

7 A. That’s Michael’s bedroom.

8 Q. Is there anything different in this

9 photograph than when you were there.

10 A. No. Except the crib wasn’t there and the

11 computer wasn’t there either.

12 Q. What are you calling a computer.

13 So the item that’s just to the left of the

14 crib.

15 A. Yes.

16 Q. And the crib is in the far right-hand side

17 in the middle of the photograph.

18 A. Yes.

19 Q. Anything else.

20 A. No.

21 Q. All right. Let’s go to the next photograph,

23 All right. 77. Do you recognize that.

24 A. Yes.

25 Q. Tell us what it is.

26 A. That’s Michael’s bedroom.

27 Q. All right. You’ve already told us that the

28 crib and the computer weren’t there. Is there 1144






1 anything else different in this photograph that’s

2 different than when you were there, in People’s 77.

3 A. All this stuff wasn’t here.

4 Q. What stuff. You’re talking about the items

5 that are on the floor.

6 A. Yes.

7 Q. To the right-hand side of the photograph.

8 A. Yes.

9 Q. I see in the back, there is what appears to

10 be some kind of a statue or a mannequin of some

11 kind.

12 A. Yes.

13 Q. Do you see that.

14 A. Yes.

15 Q. Was that there when you were there.

16 A. Yes.

17 Q. Was it in that location or in another

18 location.

20 You’re indicating the items at the bottom of

21 the photograph on the floor; is that correct.

22 A. Yes.

23 Q. Now, on this particular photograph, there’s

24 a screen. What appears to be a screen. Do you see

25 that.

26 A. Uh-huh.

27 Q. Do you know how that screen works.

28 A. It comes down. 1146






1 Q. Do you know how it comes down; I mean, how

4 Q. Was that screen down the entire time you

5 were there or was it up on some occasions.

23 A. Yes.

24 Q. Now, you told the ladies and gentlemen of

25 the jury that there was a computer table there.

26 A. Yes.

12 Now, before we move on to the next area, I

13 neglected to do something earlier.

14 We can turn the lights on, Your Honor.

15 Your Honor, I -- oh, Counsel.

16 Okay. I’m going to hand you an exhibit

17 that’s part of the exhibit that’s already in

18 evidence that’s 260, and ask if you recognize that.

19 A. No.

20 Q. Do you recognize the person in it.

21 A. Yes.

22 Q. Who’s that.

23 A. Me.

24 Q. Were you present when the information was

25 filled out on that document.

26 A. No.

27 Q. Okay. I’m going to ask you a few questions

28 about it in just a second. 1149






1 261, do you recognize that.

2 A. No.

3 Q. Pardon.

4 A. No.

5 Q. Do you recognize the photograph of the

6 person in that document.

7 A. Yes.

8 Q. Who’s that.

9 A. Me.

10 Q. Were you present when the information was

11 filled out.

12 A. No.

13 Q. All right. I’ll have to ask you a few

14 questions now.

15 We’re going to change over to the Elmo, Your

16 Honor.

17 Now, 261 is an exhibit that’s in evidence,

18 Star. With regard to the writing on that particular

19 exhibit, did you place any of that on there at any

20 time.

21 A. No.

22 Q. Underneath your photograph, which is on the

23 left-hand side of that particular exhibit, is that

24 your signature.

25 A. No.

26 Q. On the area -- do you have your little red

27 thing.

28 A. Yes. 1150






1 Q. Okay. I’m going to ask you to use it.

2 Straight across from your photograph, all the way

3 over on the right-hand side, there’s a box. That

4 box right there, okay. And it says “Italy” and

5 “France.” Did you ever hear anything about you

6 going to Italy or France.

7 A. No.

8 Q. Okay. Now, let’s take the next document,

9 which is 261.

10 Now, the photograph, do you recognize the

11 photograph.

12 A. Yes.

13 Q. Who is that.

14 A. Me.

15 Q. And is that your handwriting on that

16 particular document.

17 A. No.

18 Q. Were you present when that information was

19 filled out.

20 A. No.

21 Q. Do you know what that document is.

22 A. Not really.

23 Q. All right. Thank you.

24 We can turn the lights on, Your Honor.

25 Okay. I have another exhibit I’d like to

26 have marked as 470 for identification purposes.

27 There’s no edges on it.

28 THE CLERK: Here’s another one. 1151






1 MR. SNEDDON: All right. For the record,

2 Your Honor, 470 is a clear plastic bag with the

3 number “122980” in white on the front of it. And

4 it’s been marked 470 for identification. I’ve shown

5 it to counsel.

6 MR. MESEREAU: Excuse me, Your Honor. Could

7 I ask that the prosecutor and the witness be

8 admonished to follow your order with respect to

9 describing the contents.

10 THE COURT: Yes.

11 MR. MESEREAU: Thank you, Your Honor.

12 Q. BY MR. SNEDDON: I’m going to show you 470.

13 Recognize that.

14 A. Yes.

15 Q. What is it.

16 A. This is the suitcase that held all the

17 pornography in it.

18 MR. MESEREAU: Objection; move to strike.

19 THE COURT: It’s stricken. The pre-trial

20 order requires that you and the witness refer to

21 adult material as “adult material,” not the

22 conclusion.

23 MR. SNEDDON: Okay. I don’t even know --

24 THE COURT: There are a couple words that you

25 could use.

26 MR. SNEDDON: I’m not sure he would know any

27 of those words, but I’ll -- could I have a second to

28 talk to him about it, then. I didn’t know that 1152






1 meant to the witness, because that would be me

2 telling him words, but -- okay. Let me just....

3 (Whereupon, there was an off-the-record

4 discussion held between the witness and Mr.

5 Sneddon.)

6 Q. BY MR. SNEDDON: All right. Where was that

7 exhibit the first time you saw it.

8 A. It was -- it was in the downstairs, near the

9 bathtub that was like a Jacuzzi. It was near there.

10 Q. All right.

11 THE COURT: Just a minute, Counsel. I want

12 to tell the jury something about our last little

13 discussion, because I don’t want to leave this up in

14 the air like that.

15 The -- the reason that the witness and the

16 attorneys are to refer to this material as “adult

17 material” - or there’s another word I used, I can’t

18 remember now - instead of “pornography,” is that

19 “pornography” really is a legal conclusion that the

20 trier of fact is the person who decides what the

21 nature of the material is.

22 So by having the witness and the attorneys

23 refer to it in a somewhat neutral time frame, it

24 stops any conclusions from being made that would

25 bias the jury. That’s the whole purpose.

26 Go ahead, Counsel.

27 Q. BY MR. SNEDDON: Who was with you when you

28 saw that suitcase for the first time. 1153






1 A. Me, my brother, Aldo, and Michael.

2 Q. The defendant.

3 A. Yes.

4 Q. And who -- how was it that you were actually

5 shown that suitcase.

6 A. Uhh --

7 Q. Tell us what happened.

8 A. Just walked in the room and it was open. It

9 was -- there used to be a couch right there.

10 Q. Yeah.

11 A. And -- well, it wasn’t really a couch. It

12 was like a chair. And it was on there, and it was

13 open.

14 Q. All right. And then what happened.

15 A. Michael just started to show us magazines.

16 Q. You say “show” you. Tell us what he did.

17 A. He handed them to us.

16 Q. How many magazines do you think you saw that

17 time.

18 A. Four. Three. I don’t know.

4 Q. I’m going to show you a photograph marked as

6 And that’s -- first of all, I’m going to

8 Your Honor.

9 MR. MESEREAU: Objection; foundation.

10 THE COURT: We’ll take that up separately.

11 Q. BY MR. SNEDDON: All right. People’s 86.

12 Do you recognize that.

13 A. Yes.

14 Q. Is that an accurate depiction of what it

15 represents.

16 A. Yes.

17 Q. All right. I’m going to ask you some

18 questions about People’s 86.

19 And put it on the board, Your Honor. I move

20 it be admitted into evidence.

21 MR. MESEREAU: Objection. Foundation; and

22 authenticity and relevance.

23 THE COURT: On 86.

24 MR. SNEDDON: Yes. I asked him and he said

25 it accurately depicted the materials.

26 THE COURT: I’m not sure. I haven’t seen

27 the --

28 MR. SNEDDON: In your book, it’s No. 86, 1157







1 Your Honor --

2 THE COURT: Okay.

3 MR. SNEDDON: -- in your photographs.

4 MR. MESEREAU: Also 352, Your Honor.

5 THE COURT: I don’t think that’s an adequate

6 foundation for that particular photograph, that it

7 accurately depicts what it is. You need a further

8 foundation.

9 Q. BY MR. SNEDDON: Star, the materials that

10 are depicted in that photograph, People’s 86, do you

11 see those.

12 A. Yes.

19 Q. Does that photograph represent the items

20 that you saw with the defendant, Michael Jackson.

22 Q. In his bedroom and in his Jacuzzi, or in his

23 bathroom.

24 A. Yes.

25 MR. SNEDDON: I move it be admitted, Your

28 foundation. 1158

1 Your 352 was on what basis, Counsel.

2 MR. MESEREAU: He didn’t identify some of

3 what’s in that photograph, Your Honor, at all.

4 THE COURT: I found that the foundation is

5 adequate now. You had a 352 objection.

6 MR. MESEREAU: Yes.

7 THE COURT: What was that.

8 MR. MESEREAU: Well, basically because he

9 didn’t identify it, and because after describing

10 what he said was there, and then looking at the

11 photo and saying it accurately depicts it, he didn’t

12 identify everything, I think basically it’s

13 prejudicial and irrelevant.

14 THE COURT: All right. The probative value

15 exceeds the prejudicial --

16 THE DEFENDANT: I can’t hear.

17 THE COURT: It’s admitted.

18 THE DEFENDANT: I can’t hear you.

19 MR. SANGER: Your Honor, it’s a little hard

20 for Mr. Jackson to hear you.

21 THE DEFENDANT: Please speak up.

22 THE COURT: Yes. The probative value of

23 Exhibit 86 exceeds any prejudicial effects, and so

24 it’s admitted.

25 THE DEFENDANT: Thank you.

26 THE COURT: Sorry.

27 Q. BY MR. SNEDDON: Star, the exhibit that we

28 have on the board up there, the suitcase, and it’s 1159

3 A. Yes.

4 Q. Do they represent the things that you saw

5 with him when he took the magazines out.

6 A. Yes.

7 Q. All right. On the occasion that you saw the

8 materials from this suitcase that are depicted in

9 this photograph - okay. - who else was present.

10 A. My brother and Aldo, me, and Michael.

11 Q. Do you recall how many -- how much time

12 elapsed between the first time you saw the materials

13 downstairs till the time you saw them upstairs.

14 A. A few days.

15 Q. And did you see how the suitcase got from

16 downstairs to upstairs.

17 A. No.

18 Q. When you saw the suitcase in the bedroom,

19 upstairs, on the second occasion, was it open or was

20 it closed.

21 A. It was open.

22 Q. And where was it on the floor, or where was

23 it in the room.

24 A. On the floor.

25 Q. And where.

26 A. Right next to the T.V.

27 Q. So when you say “it’s open,” tell me what

28 you mean by “it’s open.” 1160





1 A. It was cracked.

2 Q. What do you mean by that.

3 A. It was cracked open.

4 Q. Do you see the briefcase in the exhibit as

5 we see it in the courtroom.

6 A. Yes.

7 Q. All right. Was it open in that condition.

8 A. No. No.

9 Q. Was the lid up or down when you saw it in

10 the bedroom.

11 A. It was -- it was like this, standing up.

12 And it was cracked open.

13 Q. Oh, the briefcase.

14 A. Yes.

15 Q. Oh, I see. So it wasn’t in the same

16 position that it’s shown in this photograph.

17 A. No.

18 Q. Now, how about when you saw it downstairs.

19 A. It was like that, but it was closed.

20 Q. Like what.

21 A. Standing straight up, but it was closed,

22 leaning up against something.

23 Q. In the bathroom area.

24 A. Yes.

25 Q. And how did it get opened.

26 A. What do you mean.

27 Q. Well, you said it was closed. You looked at

28 the material -- 1161






1 A. The first time it was closed. The second

2 time it was cracked open.

3 Q. Okay. We can take that down.

4 THE BAILIFF: Do you want to go ahead and

5 push “Black Screen”.

6 MR. SNEDDON: Counsel.

7 THE BAILIFF: Judge, can you push “Black

8 Screen”.

9 Q. BY MR. SNEDDON: Hang onto that for just a

10 second.

11 All right. Do you recognize the photograph

12 I’ve just handed you, which is People’s 153. Is

13 that the right number on it.

14 A. Yes.

15 Q. All right. Do you recognize that.

16 A. Yes.

17 Q. Is that an accurate depiction of the -- of

18 what it purports to represent.

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. As you saw it when you were there.

21 A. Yes.

22 MR. SNEDDON: All right. I move that 153 be

23 admitted into evidence.

24 MR. MESEREAU: No objection, Your Honor.

25 THE COURT: It’s admitted.

26 Q. BY MR. SNEDDON: All right. Star, would you

27 tell the ladies and gentlemen of the jury what 153

28 is. 1162







1 A. It’s a mannequin.

2 Q. And where was the mannequin located in the

3 room when you saw it.

4 A. To the corner.

5 Q. And with regard to this particular

6 mannequin, did you ever see anything, relative to

7 the defendant in this case, occur.

8 A. Yes.

9 Q. Tell the ladies and gentlemen of the jury

10 what you saw.

11 A. He was -- one time -- he was jerking around

12 and he grabbed the mannequin, and he was pretending

13 like he was having intercourse with it.

14 Q. And where did that occur.

15 A. On the bed. He was fully clothed. He was

16 acting like he was humping.

17 Q. I didn’t hear what you said.

18 A. He was acting like he was humping it.

20 happened.

24 A. I don’t even remember. I’m sorry.

25 Q. Did the defendant say anything while he was

26 doing it.

27 A. He was laughing.

28 Q. And how long did the whole episode last. 1163






1 A. Probably five seconds.

2 Q. Okay. Do you want to put that down.

3 Star, did you -- can you tell us whether or

4 not the topic of masturbation ever came up in any

5 conversations with the defendant.

6 MR. MESEREAU: Objection; leading.

7 THE COURT: Sustained.

8 MR. SNEDDON: Judge, “whether or not” makes

9 it an open-ended question. It doesn’t suggest the

10 answer. I don’t mean to argue with the Court, but I

11 mean --

12 MR. MESEREAU: It does not, Your Honor.

13 That’s leading.

14 THE COURT: Could you rephrase the question.

15 MR. SNEDDON: Yes, Your Honor. I can do

16 that.

17 Q. Star, did you ever have any conversations

18 with the defendant about any other sexual matters.

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. About what.

21 A. Masturbation.

22 Q. All right. Will you tell the ladies and

23 gentlemen of the jury --

24 A. I don’t know how the topic came about, but

25 he was asking me if I ever masturbated. And I said,

26 “No.” And he said --

27 MR. MESEREAU: Objection. There’s no

28 question pending. He just went off. 1164







1 THE COURT: Sustained.

2 MR. SNEDDON: I’ll frame one, Your Honor.

3 Q. Okay. So did you have a conversation.

4 A. Yes.

5 Q. All right. Now, would you tell the ladies

23 Q. All right. Would you tell us what was said,

24 what the defendant said.

25 A. He asked me if I masturbated. And I said,

26 “No.” He -- he -- then he said to me that,

27 “Everyone does it. You should try it. It’s okay,”

28 and all this stuff. 1165







1 Q. Were you the only one he asked that question

2 of.

3 A. Yes. Well, yeah. Yes.

4 Q. And when you said, “No,” did he say anything

5 else.

2 A. I think so.

3 Q. Do you remember what you were drinking.
